Valparaiso to Miami

Silver Nova marks a revolutionary chapter in ultra-luxury cruising, introducing a new design ethos for Silversea when it launches in 2023. With a passenger capacity of 728 guests and a crew-to-guest ratio of nearly 1:1, Silver Nova is built to deliver both environmental innovation and elevated guest experiences. As the first vessel in Silversea’s Nova-class, the ship features a forward-thinking asymmetrical design and is the most environmentally conscious ship in the fleet.

Silver Nova is equipped with hybrid propulsion technology, combining fuel cells, batteries, and dual-fuel engines that can run on liquefied natural gas (LNG). This allows the ship to operate with zero emissions while in port—an unprecedented milestone in the world of luxury cruising. The vessel’s architecture promotes open space, light, and connection to the sea with expansive glass windows and panoramic lounges that redefine the onboard atmosphere.

Dining reaches new levels of variety and sophistication on Silver Nova. Guests can choose from Silversea’s signature venues, including Atlantide, La Dame, La Terrazza, Kaiseki, and Silver Note, as well as new concepts like The Marquee—an outdoor dining venue housing The Grill and Spaccanapoli—and the enlarged SALT Kitchen, SALT Bar, and SALT Lab. These culinary spaces are central to Silversea’s mission of regional immersion through food.

Suites aboard Silver Nova are exceptionally spacious, starting at 357 square feet, all with private verandas and the brand’s renowned butler service. New suite categories include the expansive Otium Suite, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, custom Otium wellness amenities, and the largest veranda in the fleet. Thoughtfully designed interiors offer generous living areas, walk-in wardrobes, lavish bathrooms with dual vanities, and a curated minibar.

The public areas aboard Silver Nova are designed to foster a sense of openness and fluidity. The ship features a reimagined pool deck with an infinity edge overlooking the ocean, a two-story atrium-style Observation Lounge, and a luxurious Roman-inspired Otium Spa. Cultural enrichment is offered in the Venetian Lounge, while the S.A.L.T. program provides hands-on regional learning through food and storytelling.

Silver Nova’s itineraries will span the globe, from the Mediterranean to the Americas, allowing guests to experience iconic ports and hidden gems with immersive shore excursions and local encounters. Excursions are led by expert guides and curated through Silversea’s Destination Experience team.

More than just a cruise ship, Silver Nova is a bold step forward in sustainability and guest-centric design. It represents a harmony of cutting-edge technology, spatial elegance, and destination-focused luxury—an ideal choice for travelers who want to experience the world without compromise. With Silver Nova, Silversea ushers in a new era where environmental responsibility and indulgent exploration coexist seamlessly.
